Vital Stats: I am an almost-29-year-old, I have a pixie cut, and I work out (running, soccer, biking) fairly often. I work as a visual interaction designer for a software consulting company in Pittsburgh, PA. I live in the city and I absolutely love it. »7/08/15 6:10pm 7/08/15 6:10pm

A better blow dryer can save you a ton of time, save you from going out or going to bed with wet hair, and also just dry your hair consistently, safely, more quietly, and with less electricity. Which blow dryer deserves to blast you with hot air on a regular basis? Tell us in the comments. »6/29/15 3:15pm 6/29/15 3:15pm

As the resident youth vote on The View, Raven-Symoné—who has yet to be given a full-time spot on the panel but has Whoopi’ssupport—spends most of her time yammering on somewhat nonsensically about a bevy of topics. It’s her job, and she’s great at it! Unfortunately for Raven, what’s on her head is far more… »6/08/15 3:45pm 6/08/15 3:45pm

I suppose if you’re 1. the co-owner of a multimillion-dollar haircare line and 2. known throughout the world for having preternaturally great hair, you might know a thing or two about a bad haircut. »5/12/15 10:40pm 5/12/15 10:40pm

I started my career shampooing old ladies and rinsing perms. After that, I worked at a family salon in the suburbs before moving on to a barbershop in the big city. Now I’m at a “hip salon” in a different big city. Being behind the chair for almost 10 years now means I’ve seen some things. I’ve heard some things.… »5/07/15 3:10pm 5/07/15 3:10pm

Last week, the internet erupted with the news that beards, those beautiful things that hide men’s weak chins and childhood acne scars, are chock-full of something more than manliness—and that something is poop. For anyone either excited or horrified by this news (my immediate reaction was to go drag my bearded face… »5/04/15 1:00pm 5/04/15 1:00pm

My husband and I are both neurotically tidy. We're not exactly germaphobes, but our house is usually organized and reasonably clean, even the areas nobody ever sees. It's great because our place always looks presentable, but a well-kept home also creates a set of unique problems. »4/10/15 3:10pm 4/10/15 3:10pm

It's three a.m. and I'm glued to Tumblr. I'm not a teen, so this is unusual. It's Sunday night, and my non-teenage job requires me to have an active brain in only six hours, but I can't look away from the constantly refreshing scroll—all pictures of Danielle Haim flanked by her sisters Este and Alana. They stare back… »4/07/15 3:20pm 4/07/15 3:20pm

Katy Perry just debuted a suspect new haircut on this April Fools' Day with the ominous caption: "I asked for the Kris Jenner." She could have just asked for "a pixie cut with a heavy bang" and gotten the same effect, but fine. »4/01/15 1:30pm 4/01/15 1:30pm

My beauty life is one of compromises, which is to say that in general, I strive to look a strong "okay." But, I also know goals are predictive—so today I decided to strive for more. It was sunny when I woke up and I wasn't hungover. Literally anything in the world seemed possible.»3/30/15 7:10pm 3/30/15 7:10pm

The Transportation Safety Administration (TSA) is vowing to change its ways after two black women complained about having their hair searched at multiple airports during screenings. Both women wear their hair in a style known as "sisterlocks," hardly a vessel for storing WMDs. »3/28/15 4:15pm 3/28/15 4:15pm
